Puppy mill/ aggressive dogs

Greg Strunak
Posted

Please help,

We recently purchased an investment property. For context this is a cabin in the woods. Upon purchase we found out that our next door neighbor is a “dog breeder”. He has 30 plus dogs that fight all day long and bark all day. As soon as you walk out of the cabin the dogs race to the dinky fence about 80 yards from the cabin and bark like they want to kill you. We have had complaints from guest about the dogs barking. These are also German Shepards. I am concerned 1. That this is a puppy mill. 2. For my guest safety if a dog gets out. 3. The noise. When I confronted the owners about the dogs he didn’t want to hear anything I had to say. What are my best options to fix this issues for both the dogs and my guest.

You can’t. Sell and move on. The real question is; why did you even buy in the first place?
